I love a good discussion. I like social networks, and I love being part of a community. But being part of a community where I’m the moderator and the principal content creator? That’s a lot of work. Aaaand maybe not all that healthy.

I’ve also found that it slurps up a lot of my time. Perhaps this is my ego speaking, but I think people would probably rather I spent time writing words and drawing pictures than reading comments and flushing spam-traps.

Ping-backs and trackbacks are enabled. If you want to discuss one of my posts, you can start a discussion in a space that you control. If you link to the post in question, that link will show up in the comments space on this site.  Others who read my post can see that you’ve mentioned it, and can follow the link away from howardtayler.com’s comment-free zone, and into your space.
